Ana takes it in the closing rounds

9 changes of leader: this one was a tug of war.

Ana won with 97 points, by a whisker: just 2 points ahead. 2 hands in a row: Ana broke the contract each time while everyone else made theirs.

Monica led for 8 hands but finished second, 2 points behind. In the third of the middle eights: Monica said 2, made 5, and the evening was ruined for Mihai.

Mihai completed the podium with 81 points. 2 hands in a row: only Mihai slipped, while the rest said it and did it. The cards were kind to everyone but Mihai. Mihai was even in front after the second of the closing eights.

Elena took last place without any nerves at all, on 66 points. 2 hands in a row: the table said and did, Elena said and... hoped. It didn't hold.

Congratulations to all — see you at the next table!
